An interesting, relatively low-key shortlist for this year’s Stirling Prize. I’m an admirer of Witherford Watson Mann’s transformation of the Courtauld Institute, but can’t quite see it winning. The new Faculty of Arts building at Warwick University is immensely impressive and on a grand scale. But I think I would put my money on what looks like a very thoughtful housing scheme in Clapham by Sergison Bates, since new housing is the order of the day.
